I liked the beaches and shops and restaurants and the whole ambience of Annamarie Island. It’s a laid-back place.
Pros:

Where I stayed was an annex of the Inn across the street and not on the beach. It had a nice pool and seating for it. There were only I think six hotel rooms. Our room was big and roomy and stylish. The hotel and the office was down the street on the other side on the beach About a two minute walk.

Cons:

I had to back out into the street to get on the road in front of the Inn

Nice place across the street from the beach
Pros:

location was good, the retreat was not quite as nice as their other locations, it would be nice to have an ice machine at the facility, rooms face the road so it is a bit noisy.

Cons:

Booking.com describes all of the rooms the same, this location is not "on the beach" it is across the street from the beach.

Wirklich empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Sehr nah am Strand und super komfortabel. Das Bett war sehr groß und bequem. Super guter Kaffee und sehr nettes Personal

Cons:

Leider war die Tür aus Glas mit Folie und dadurch war es früh morgen sehr hell im Zimmer. Es gab keine Möglichkeit das Zimmer komplett zu verdunklen. Es ist auch etwas laut durch die Straße direkt vorm Zimmer

Ljuvligt strandnära boende.
Pros:

Härligt modernt boende med sköna sängar, mysig uteplats och pool. Väldigt nära till stranden.

Cons:

Lite högljudd AC, dåligt tryck i duscharna samt lite väl kallt i poolen.

A couple Days Away
Pros:

The staff were very, very nice and helpful. The only down side was not having ice or know where to fill our ice bucket and the outside light shining in to our room as we slept.

Perfect stay
Pros:

We only stayed for 2 days and would have extended if we had more time. It can’t be any better. The staff, the rooms, the pool, everything was excellent. I would recommend to stay here 110%.
